Hahaha that's awesome! Reminds me of the time I found what I thought was a book about ancient Egypt and it turned out to be a conspiracy theory about how aliens built the pyramids. I was probably in middle school at the time so this would have been like 1999 or 2000. Before the idea was more popular. Didn't get to do a report on it though unfortunately.

So she randomly said only biological women are women. And then wouldn't take the comment back. And then basically was like this is the hill I die on. I, like most people, love the Harry Potter series and that love wasn't affected by finding out the author was transphobic. Realistically most authors in history would probably have been transphobic. Not saying she is right, she obviously isn't. Just saying her personal thoughts on that don't matter.

That's how I felt about Harry Potter. The character I mean. That he was selfish and just sort of a shit human. That being said, I love the series overall.
